Winter 2019 Book Club - vote for your preferred book

The Book Club provides an opportunity for faculty and staff to engage in learning and professional development by:

  • Reading a book.
  • Getting together with colleagues to explore new ideas.
  • Networking with others.
  • Discussing the content of the book.
  • Creating an action plan to apply learning at work and in life.

Each person receives a personal copy of the book (theirs to keep), along with guided questions to consider for discussion with the larger group.

Sessions focus on discussion about the contents and themes of the book, sharing thoughts about how the ideas presented in the book may be applied within the university community. 

This year, participants can vote for their preferred winter book!

  • Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard, by Chip and Dan Heath
